Jet d'Eau, the fifth beatle (edit: OC)
The famous jet d’Eau in Geneva doing its best to impersonate a boat mast.

Thanks, here are some figures about our Jet d'Eau and a not so fun fact:
At 200km/h and 140m high, one day a dude tried to kiss it. He was denied any love, felt down near the base, tried to hug the Jet d'Eau (again yes...). Was sent into orbit and finished into the lake where police fished him up.
He did survive, but probably not his last brain cells.
That thing is powerful, when you stand below it you are soaked to the bones by fresh lake water in seconds. At this exact time (24 August 14h30 utc) you can see people pressing below it cause it is 32°C right now in Geneva)
